Comprehensive review of penile cancer using MR imaging.
Article in Insights into imaging, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is considered the gold standard for staging penile squamous cell carcinoma and assessing its extent. However, due to the rarity of this pathology, few medical centers have regular experience with penis carcinoma imaging. The purpose of this article is to provide a comprehensive update on the role of MRI in penile cancer by reviewing the MRI anatomy of a normal penis, outlining the recommended MRI techniques for penis assessment, and discussing the benefits and drawbacks of artificial erection. We will also highlight how MRI can serve the purpose of tumor staging and its therapeutic consequences. CRITICAL RELEVANCE STATEMENT: To provide a comprehensive and practical review of penile cancer based on imaging, including epidemiology, prognosis, treatment, penile MRI protocol, anatomy, and key points for accurate analysis. KEY POINTS: Penile carcinoma affects the glans and/or the foreskin in 98% of cases. MRI is the most accurate imaging modality for staging penile carcinoma and assessing its extent. T2-weighted using thin section is the best sequence to identify the tumor. Accurate treatment depends on the depth of local invasion and lymph node involvement.
